I have an entry in my listbox which is too long to see the whole selection.
Is there a way to insert a carriage return so the choice appears as 2 lines?


The sentence is: "Review spreadsheet of fees for completeness - Contact
Submitter with any questions" . I would like the choice to appear as:

Review spreadsheet of fees for completeness
Contact Submitter with any questions

in the Listbox

Thanks!

Nope. ComboBoxes and ListBoxes are single line only.

You could build a subform that "acted like" a ListBox but it would not be
trivial.
 
Thanks. I didn't think so. I used a combo box instead...the choice doesn't
show completely but at least the text wraps after it is chosen.
